I still get connection refused on port 119, but do get response on the http port. I also notice that on Aug 2 Herbert Xu posted another of his patches to the prior release. Did 2.3.3b1 include his earlier work or are these going in different directions? I was able to go to his diff- 11 patch OK. Tim Krantz (tek@dsinc.com)
